Data Sheet DS/NDA-EN Rev. H Model NDA Differential pressure transmitter Deltapi N Series A complete range of pneumatic pressure transmitters Introduction The blind type differential pressure transmitter mod. NDA is used to measure a differential pressure and convert it into a proportional pneumatic signal.
DESCRIPTION The instrument works on the force-balance principle and consists of two main units. The measuring unit comprises a main body which houses a bellows unit, clamped in the main body forging by means of a flange. The bellows unit releves the differential pressure between the negative and positive connection ports; it can stand the maximum rated static pressure on either side out damage. The transmission unit converts the differential force applied to the measuring element into a proportional output pneumatic signal. The output pressure, generated by a flapper nozzle relay, is fed to a feedback bellows a rising pressure until the bellows force balances that of the measuring element. Span value continuously adjustable by an internal micrometric screw. OPTIONAL EXTRA FEATURES A zero elevation or suppression device allows to set as a zero of the transmitter a measured variable value different from zero. The sum of the zero suppression value (S) plus the calibrated span cannot exceed the upper range limit (M) suitable by the diaphragm capsule : S + span M (see table). Air filter regulator can be directly mounted on the transmitter, or out pressure gauge, and connected piping and fittings either in stainless steel or copper. Special versions of air filter regulator and gauges, in stainless steel, are available on request. Oxygen measurements a special degreasing and final test operations can be required on the oxygen measuring transmitter. Zero value adjustable by an external screw. Mounting in a vertical position on 2in diameter pipe by a special bracket.
